Mario Kart Monthly

Ready, set, go! Get ready for our next in-person casual Mario Kart event at the HQ!

If you’re joining us in-person we encourage you to bring your own LABELED equipment; switch, dock, MK cartridge/DLC, controllers. There’s a limited supply on site to borrow.
If you’re joining online, you will need the Nintendo Switch Online paid membership [Visit the Nintendo eShop on the Switch to learn more]. I highly encourage you to join us in the Community Night voice channel, or you can communicate between races using the channel’s built in chat.

ACCESSING THE TOURNAMENT ONLINE (most often used): Mario Kart Main screen> online play> tournaments> search by code
ACCESSING THE ROOM/JOIN A FRIEND: Mario Kart Main screen> online play> friends> search by room ID or find a friend online

Creating ‘tournament’ rooms allows more than 12 racers to join and players at home can still be included. This also allows for me to be away from the console to help in-person guests while the racing happens.
Creating a ‘room’ allows up to 12 racers to join and I can select custom settings frequently. Unfortunately, if I get a comm. error, or if I’m not actively racing then everyone either gets kicked out, or is waiting for me.

If guests show up and HQ doesn’t have enough equipment, we won’t turn guests away. We’ll create a system of rotating racers that switch out every X amount of races. In these scenarios we would use ‘rooms’ so we can easily set a specific number of races. That also allows racers to take breaks to snack, hydrate, or use the restroom.

Hope to see you soon!

January 20 @ 7:00 PM - 10:00 PM
